The interior fruit color is medium to dark orange with thick flesh and a distinct green-orange interface at the rind, as shownin Fig.2.The seed cavity is small. The fruit has an average length to diameter(L:D) ratio of 1.1:1. Fruit length from stem end to blossom end averages 15.8 cm and width averages 14 cm. Depending on growing conditions and management, fruit weight aver-ages between 1.6 to 2.3 kg. The fruit mature in about 85 to 90 d from seeding. Taste tests show that the quality(flavor, sugar, and texture) was higher than other standard eastern shippers and the older disease susceptible cultivars Goldstar and"Earliqueen'. 'Hannah's Choice' has a distinct musky cantaloupe flavor and high sugar content. In general it compares well with other similar cultivars in terms of yield, fruit weight, soluble solids, and quality(Table 2 )
